Features

For sensing small or flat parts at high speeds

Simple, economical, and highly reliable means of sensing small parts or flat items that pass

anywhere through the light screen

Emitter and receiver pair produce a strobed web of modulated light beams in 12 lengths and two

sensing ranges

Response speeds as fast as 0.8 ms with an output that includes a 5 ms pulse stretcher for

interfacing reliability

Simple wiring configuration; emitter and receiver do not need a synchronization wire

Rugged, self-contained, and compact construction; rated IEC IP65

Bipolar design offers both NPN (current sinking) and PNP (current sourcing) solid-state outputs

WARNING:

Do not use this device for personnel protection 

Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.

This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel

safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-energized (off)

output condition.

Models

An LX Part-Sensing Light Curtain system requires an emitter and receiver pair that match in range and sensing array length.

Additional sizes are available on request; contact Banner Engineering. The 2 m (6.5 ft) unterminated 5-wire PVC-jacketed cable models are

listed. To order the 150 mm (6 in) cable with the 5-pin M12 QD model, add the suffix “Q” to model number (for example, LX3EQ). Models with

a quick disconnect require a mating cordset.
